Mark Adair to Rohit Sharma, DROPPED AND FOUR! Ireland just cannot afford these errors in the field! Holds onto the hard length, outside off, again, nipping away with the angle, Rohit Sharma goes for an expansive drive towards the off side but gets a thickish outside edge that goes straight towards the second slip where the fielder makes a meal out of it and the ball bursts through his hands over his head before running to the fence.

Joshua Little to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! Fortunate enough there! Joshua Little slants a yorker outside off, Rohit Sharma bends low to squeeze it through point but inside edges just past the stumps for a boundary at deep fine leg.

Joshua Little to Rohit Sharma, SIX! This time he connects and connects well! A friendly knee-length full toss, tailing back in on the pads, Rohit Sharma gets underneath it and flatly slaps it downtown for a biggie.

Mark Adair to Virat Kohli, OUT! TAKEN! Virat Kohli departs trying to find the aggressive route and India lose the first wicket! Mark Adair lands this one on a good length, nipping away with the angle outside off, Virat Kohli again gets the dancing shoes on and charges ahead for an expansive drive through the covers but the ball climbs a bit more on the bounce and takes the thickish outside edge of the bat before flying into the safe hands of Ben White stationed at deep third who doesn't have to move an inch.

Mark Adair to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! WHAT A CRACKING SHOT! Lands this one right underneath the bat, a friendly half-volley to be precise, on off, Rishabh Pant picks the bones out of it and spanks it down the ground over the non-striker's head for a cracking boundary to end the over.

Joshua Little to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! Beautifully played! Offers width this time does Little and goes full as well, Rohit Sharma leans on it and carves it up and over cover-point for a boundary. Rohit brings up 4000 runs in T20I cricket.

Barry McCarthy to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! Not quite off the middle of the bat but Rishabh Pant will take it! Lands it on a back of a length, outside off, Rishabh Pant frees his arms and slaps it back over the bowler's head for a boundary.

Joshua Little to Rohit Sharma, SIX! BOOM! Rohit Sharma connects this one alright! Joshua Little delivers it on a shortish length, right where Rohit needs it, around off. Rohit Sharma is waiting for it on the back foot and nails the pull over deep square leg for a maximum.

Joshua Little to Rohit Sharma, SIX! Much finer but the result is the same! Back-to-back maximums for the Indian skipper! Short again but it is on a tighter line, at the batter, Rohit Sharma swivels in his crease and pulls it flat but over fine leg for six more runs.

Mark Adair to Rohit Sharma, FOUR! A gift for Rohit Sharma to get to his FIFTY and the Indian skipper obliges! It has not been the most convincing knocks but Rohit will take it, considering he did not have a great run in the Indian T20 League. Mark Adair misses his mark and serves up a juicy full toss, on middle, Rohit Sharma waits on it and smacks it through the vacant mid-wicket region for a boundary.

Joshua Little to Rishabh Pant, SIX! Thank You says Pant! Short in length, and around off, sets up nicely for the batter. Rishabh Pant reads the length well and readies himself for a pull shot creating a strong base before hoisting it over deep square leg for a biggie.

Ben White to Rishabh Pant, FOUR! Cracked away! Dishes out the googly, full and on off, Rishabh Pant picks it early and makes room before smashing it over cover for a boundary.

Ben White to Suryakumar Yadav, OUT! IN THE AIR AND TAKEN! Suryakumar Yadav tries to finish it with a maximum but holes out! Ben White offers flight nicely and keeps it full, on off, and middle, Suryakumar Yadav crouches to get underneath it and tries to get it over deep mid-wicket. Gets more height than the distance and skies it very high in the air towards deep mid-wicket where George Dockrell runs in off the ropes and takes a well-judged catch looking into the sun.

Barry McCarthy to Rishabh Pant, SIX! OUTRAGEOUS FROM RISHABH PANT! A contender for the shot of the tournament! This has taken us back to Pant's audacious reverse lap against James Anderson during the Ahmedabad Test in 2021. Barry McCarthy bowls it on a length, on off, Rishabh Pant premeditates and brings out the reverse lap. Executes it to perfection as he gets it over the keeper and clears the fence with ease. Barry McCarthy is left bewildered. India win by 8 wickets!
